Best In-house Strategy Internships

Given the current macroeconomic situation and the MBB hiring slowdowns, what are the best in-house strategy internship opportunities? Are there more programs similar to Capital One? In other words, what internships provide the most relevant work experience and are seen in the best light for FT MBB recruiting? Thanks for your help!

Bump. AmEx tried to sell themselves as a similar sort of setup to C1 when they did recruiting events at my school but unsure if actual experiences match up with what they were selling

 

Is in-house strategy seeing a generally better hiring environment than external consulting? I'm guessing it's a better scene considering it's not dependent on selling project work.

 

Is that the one thats insanely hard to break into? 🥲 i heard they take like one person a year
